Does anyone have any experience with this heater from West Marine? [url=http://www.westmarine.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/producte/10001/-1/10001/245831/377%20710/0/heater/Primary%20Search/mode%20matchallpartial/0/0?N=377 710&Ne=0&Ntt=heater&Ntk=Primary Search&Ntx=mode...

Robbi has the Edson a 19's wheel. Anyone know if the thickness of the helm wheel's rim is the same on all the C-Dorys? As I recall, the max size for the Edson was 1/8" too small for the wheel on my 25.

Adding a suicide knob has been on my list. Where did you get one that will fit the C-Dory wheel? I tried an Edson, but the Edson attaching hardware doesn't open wide enough to attach to the wheel.

Magic tube indeed! Thanks for all the great support, C-Brats.

Joe suggests I hand polish the prop with a "passivation polish for stainless steel" and keep an eye on further discoloration. I googled "passivation polish" but got very technical hits. Any suggestions for a suitable easy to find polish? Thanks.

The installation instructions for the permatrim did not mention sealing anywhere, except to "Dab a bit of the marine sealant around each of the bolt holes on top of the AV plate." (The particular permatrim model for the Honda 135 is the M9.)

Joe - thanks for the great response. Polish the prop I will.

The trailing edges of my prop have "rainbow" coloration on the trailing edges of the stainless prop. I am told this is the result of cavitation. I know of only one time when I knew cavitation was occuring. That was when the lower unit was fouled with seaweed. The boat is an '04 CD-25. Engine...

Could this cause cavitation?

Thanks, gents, for the information and the link. I'll check it out.

This is an old thread -- but some things don't change! The marina I am currently using does not have a completely equipped pump out unit. The part that fits to the waste tank deck fill on the coaming at the stern is not supplied. It's the part that couples to the vacuum hose. I have to...

Losing c-brats.com is a little like the shock of losing electricty. Wow. Glad that's over. Had to click on "Donate Now" for the effort that y'all put in . . .

On first glance I thought it was a Caledon 27. Rather similar lines. http://www.caledonboatworks.com/index.html

Does anyone know if consumer boat loans were securitized?

Great to have all these responses. If I go with a fixed mount, that brings me back to the original question regarding the dash/shelf area directly over the v-berth entrance on a CD-25: "Any tips on whether to mount the unit with bolts that go through the surface and secure it with nuts from the...

I will look into the industrial velcro. Sounds very promising. Still interested in knowing about fixed mounting, though, before going ahead.

Do the RAM mounts need to be attached with screws too? Or does your setup use suction cups?

The P.O. on my boat mounted the display module for the radar suspended from the underside of the electronics shelf. That's too far above the helsman's line of sight for me. I want to move it so that it will be mounted upright on the dash area over the entryway to the v-berth, between the compass...

10-4 regarding CD player issues. My immediate plan is to use the stereo I already have, so I'm not planning to buy anything additional at this point. I'll keep this in mind for the inevitable future upgrade. (The stereo I have is a Jensen CPM550 kit I bought in 04/07 - still in the box.)
